star san and its bubbles

[brydo]

hi guys, finally got my self some star san and bloody hell does it not half foam up. my question is after soaking out my demi john wit the stuff and emptying it out the inside is still covered with bubbles and foam. now as its a no rinse sanatiser i dont wanna rinse it out so is it ok to siphon my wort directly on top of the bubbles ? is this safe for the beer ? cheers guys for any advice

Really? I'm also worried about the bubbles and give everything a rinse when using it. Can you bottle without any bad effect with a shot of the solution then not rinsing it? It would certainly save me time if this is so.

rinsing with water kinda defeats the purpose of a non rinse...


its grand the more foam the better...

Is that before exchange rate? I'm away from the laptop now but I'm sure it was £99 on the UK page. I would feel like a cheat if l ordered from the IE site.

 

[ManseMasher]

That's with the exchange rate, before discount. If you look at the two sites, I think they might be the same company?

 

[Demig]

It is and you can use the .ie no problem. I've used both and also forgot the discount last time!

Just tried to log in to the IE site and I'm not recognised. I would certainly buy them at that price with the discount offered so maybe I will check with Shane if it's better to register with the. Ie site.

 

[Demig]

Yep I had to register through it as well but caused no issues. I have a zero commission fancy euro card thing as well so works out very well

 

[Wardy]

Done. 3 Corny kegs, regulator, and other bits ordered from ie site. 😀 that's my fund now used that was going to buy a BrauMeister. I think I've chosen the best option.

 

[Demig]

Enjoy :) just set my first keg up and works so well.
